Description
Representation of a sphere in three-dimensional space. The sphere is stored as the three-dimensional position of its center and its radius.

Construction
| _Sphere() Construct a unit sphere centered at the origin. | |
| _Sphere( vec3_t  _center,  value_t  _radius) Construct a sphere with the given center and radius. |

Calculate the distance of the given position to the sphere.
Parameters
- position
- Position vector
Parameters
- >0
- The position is outside the sphere.
- 0
- The position is on the surface of the sphere.
- <0
- The position is inside the sphere.

function
 Geometry::_Sphere::calcCartesianCoordinate
| public | const | inline | 
| vec3_t calcCartesianCoordinate( | value_t | inclination, | 
| value_t | azimuth | |
| ) const | 
Convert a position on this sphere given in spherical coordinates into Cartesian coordinates. The functioncalcCartesianCoordinateUnitSphereis called, and center and radius of this sphere are applied to the result.

function
 Geometry::_Sphere::calcCartesianCoordinateUnitSphere
| public | static | inline | 
| vec3_t calcCartesianCoordinateUnitSphere( | value_t | inclination, | 
| value_t | azimuth | |
| ) | 
Convert a position on the unit sphere given in spherical coordinates into Cartesian coordinates. The unit sphere is centered at the origin.
Parameters
- inclination
- Inclination angle from [0, PI]
- azimuth
- Azimuth angle from [0, 2 * PI)
Returns
Three-dimensional vector representing a position on the unit sphere
Note: Aninclinationof zero corresponds to the north pole (0, 1, 0), independent of the azimuth.
Note: Aninclinationof PI corresponds to the south pole (0, -1, 0), independent of the azimuth.
Note: Aninclinationof PI/2 andazimuthof zero corresponds to the vector (1, 0, 0).
Note: Aninclinationof PI/2 andazimuthof 1/2 * PI corresponds to the vector (0, 0, 1).
Note: Aninclinationof PI/2 andazimuthof PI corresponds to the vector (-1, 0, 0).
Note: Aninclinationof PI/2 andazimuthof 3/2 * PI corresponds to the vector (0, 0, -1).
